“It doesn’t bother me [that Kwadwo has been absent from the national team since Afcon] because that’s how the game of football ensues. There’s a replacement for every single player so that’s how the job of football works. There are a lot of prospects on the horizon. He hasn’t retired from the Black Stars, if he receives a call-up he will honour it," Emmanuel told Kumasi-based Ashh FM.
